Just to warn you, Insyphromanetaria isn't actually what it's called. I just made that up.

Chapter 5 - Sisters?



I guess I must have fallen asleep. The girl from the bed turned around, looked at me and said "Jace!" She ran towards me, "How are you? Why are you here? You should be running! They're going to get you if you stay here!"

"What do you mean? Who's going to get me?"

"Don't you remember? You couldn't have forgotten Jace! Lydecker! He'll be after us! You know that!" She had the most worried look in her eyes… "Come on… what's the matter? You don't remember me? From Manticore?" She stops at that name and shudders. I find myself doing the same thing.

"I don't know who you are, or what you talking about." I add hastily.

"You have to remember me Jace! What's wrong with you? You remember me... it's me Syl." Syl...Syl...Syl... It all comes back to me in a rush… BLOOD, GUNS, FIGHTING, YELLING, NO HAIR, BRUSES… O my gosh… O my gosh… I can remember almost all of it now. "What happened to you Jace… Why can't you remember it all?"

"I… I… I was hit by… By a car…" I'm holding my head now. I remember Jack… falling to the ground shaking. "Jack… Jack… What's wrong Jack… You've got to get up… They're going to take you away if you don't… come on Jack… Get up…" I'm yelling out loud now. My eyes are shut but I can tell Syl is horrified. She sits in a chair and pulls me into her arms… she keeps telling me everything is going to be okay. That I'm just remembering. It isn't really happening. I can remember Eva being shot when we tried to help Max. I can remember. Everything.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Dr. Jason comes running into the room. Jace is shaking like a madman on the floor. The girl in the bed is out of her coma but still droggy. She looks down and sees Jace on the floor. I know she can't see very well but she looks horrified. I pull the tube out that is attaching them, and lay Jace on an empty bed beside the girl. Dr. Jason takes her blood pressure. It is surprisingly normal, as though she never gave the blood. I call a nurse to help me hold her down. She holds Jace's arm out and helps me get the blood out. That's when I notice the other girl is also shaking, though not quite as much. I get blood from the other girl and examine it under the microscope. They are both missing something-called Insyphromanetaria. It helps regulate some major nerves and muscles in the body. Which is why they are shaking. I ask the nurse to get a bottle of Trypthophen. It should do the trick. I get them both to swallow some. For some remarkable reason they are both awake. After a few minutes they both stop shaking.

"How do you girls feel?"

Neither of them says anything, but they both smile.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

I can't remember anything from the dream, except that is was scary and VERY realistic. I remember the girl that's beside me was in it. But that's all I can remember. I glance back over at the girl; she's gone asleep. I turn to Dr. Jason; I want to know why I was shaking.

"It seems that for some reason, while you were

giving this girl blood that your brain was

working so hard to re-grow the blood that it

wasn't watching the Insyphromanetaria levels.

That is why you began to shake. It shouldn't

happen again though." I glance back over at the

girl. "Do you know her?" He asks me. I shake my

head no. "Are you sure? She looks sort of like

you with the buzz cut and all…" I hear a noise

out the window. And I turn my head to see what

it is. "So that isn't just a bruise is it?" I

look at him questionably? What isn't just a

bruise? I don't know what he's talking about.

"That thing on your neck. I thought it was just

a bruise from the front of the truck that hit

you. But it isn't. It's a barcode. I don't know

what it's for. But I think you and this girl

may be sisters. You see," he said as he walked

over and turned her head, "she has one too." I

jump up out of the bed. I walk over to the

bathroom, and turn. I can see the side of

something black on my neck. Dr. Jason brought

in another mirror so I could see the whole

thing. I can't believe it. Maybe we are

sisters. "I don't think we'll ever know unless

one of you gets your memory back." I turn to

him and put a puzzled look on my face. What

does he mean? "She was also hit by a truck. She

was trying to cross the highway, I guess. We've

put out a notice already that we've found her.

But nobody's claimed her either. I'm gonna go

talk to Maria and John. You can lay down and

get some rest while I go downstairs." With that

he left the room.

I wasn't tired so I decided so sit by the

girl's bed and hold her hand; maybe it would

wake her up. I sat in the same chair I had

before and held her hand. She stirred and

looked up at me. I smiled. She smiled back.

She went back to sleep. But from what Dr. Jason

told me she probably lost her memory also, but

that she had woken up for a few minutes. She

had been in terrible panic because, like me,

she didn't know who she was. She must have

recognized me like I did her, so maybe we

really are sisters. Who knows? I wonder why he

wanted to talk to Maria and John. 7 Minutes

later he came followed by Maria and John. Maria

found me, hugged me, and then told me,

"Assuming the girl doesn't know who she is, or

where she came from, if she's all right with it

we're going to adopt her as well." She looked

at me and I smiled back. This was going to be

good. Everything might turn out all right.

P.S. What do you think about this for a fic? Idea - An X-9 who they didn't get all the emotions out of suddenly starts doing weird things. When she knocked over a pitcher of jus she said 'stop' it froze. Knowing that this wasn't good she quickly said 'Go', but it was too late. Lydecker had saw.

A while later, when in training Lydecker shot at there feet to make them jump and kick each other, but when she did it she managed to stay in the air for a while, kicking at least 10 times before she came down.

And a couple of days after that when in the middle of eating her green soup, she saw one of the navy seals they were training with eating hamburgers, she said "I want that hamburger" and when she said 'that hamburger' she stuck out her hand with the palm up. She felt her hand weighed down and saw the hamburger on top of it.
